Together

Placing my head on your shoulder, I heard your heartbeats. Like for the first time.

It plugged out the noise outside.

I lay still listening to the beat of your heart. Our Heart.

In that moment, if you were to tell me tales of loves lost,

I would have drowned your voice in the stirrings of the heart. Our Heart.

Trying to rise and write a note or two, you held me closer. 

My words lost their rhythm, when compared to the beat of the heart. Our Heart.
